Does anyone know when official bitcoin was released? It would be interested in knowing, and celebrated each year by the community.
Bitcoin was officially released as a program for public use on the 9th of January, 2009, something which was commented on a few times just under a week ago from a majority of the forum. Everyone has been pretty excited to see what's going to be going on in the future for Bitcoin, but there isn't a lot of excitement surrounding the birthday of Bitcoin itself. It'ss mostly people going through the same motions for the year, I don't think there were a lot of new accounts taking an interest in Bitcoin's birthday either. Kind of sad but eh, what can you do? It doesn't mean all that much in the grand scheme of things, just some nice sentiments for some of us.
